Ebay oversize Throttle body's

How dificult is it to adapt our map sensor on these throttle body's ? I am talking about the 80,90,100mm one's.

Also are the blox TB's a direct swap ?
The 76mm one looks tempting if it is a direct swap.
If not I might go for one of the monster TB's.
I talked to a machine shop and he said their would be no problem adapting what ever I wanted to my manifold so I thinking I should get something big.

I THINK THAT SOUNDS GOOD.
I WOULD STAY AROUND THE 80MM THOUGH.
I think maybe the others will be overkill...
I will be on here to see what your outcome is of this because i was wanting to do this as well later on............

The inlet on the stock cls manifold is right around 65mm.
So It's going to take a bit of work to do 80mm or bigger.
If a stock 3.7 uses a 80mm TB I'm sure I could do a 90mm.

Since I'm wanting to do that boss hog Sh!t.

I'm thinking 90mm with 3.5" intake
or 100mm with a 4" intake
and get some plenum spacers made.

Any thoughts on either of these set ups ?

I think it'll be a lot more difficult then you think. Doesn't Civicdrvr use an oversized TB that gave him several problems.

I'm still thinking a 75-80mm will be plenty good..
As far as the fitment, i thought b-series engine throttle bodies worked with our cars? if so, then your golden

The 80mm required the entire neck of the manifold to be rebuilt from scratch.
